A crazy week of weather is coming to an end, folks! We’ve had our fair share of rain showers, but now it looks like things are heating up. The muggy, stormy weather is making its grand finale as we head into the weekend. If you can tough it out until Saturday, relief is in sight.
On Friday, we saw some scattered storms rolling through the area, but Saturday is shaping up to be a bit drier. Most of us in the tri-state region can expect a mostly dry day, although it’ll definitely be a hot one. Keep an eye out for isolated storms popping up from late morning through the evening – you never know when one might hit!
Make sure to have your weather alerts on in the free NBC New York app so you can stay updated on any incoming storms. It’s always good to have the radar at your fingertips and get immediate notifications when severe weather is headed your way. To the north of the city, there’s a chance for some storms to get pretty intense with hail, strong winds, and even a possible tornado. Stay safe out there!
Down in South Jersey, they had an EF-0 tornado touch down on Friday, causing some damage with fallen tree branches and ripped-off roof sheeting. Mother Nature sure knows how to keep us on our toes! As we move into Saturday, the risk for storms expands throughout the tri-state area. Most of us will be at a Level 2 alert, meaning there’s a higher chance of scattered storms, especially in the afternoon and early evening. Keep an eye out for strong winds and maybe even a tornado – it’s better to be safe than sorry!
Even though there’s a possibility of storms during the Subway Series games, it looks like they’ll go on without any major weather hiccups. The scattered nature of the storms means rain delays are unlikely, so fans can breathe a sigh of relief. And on Sunday, the weather is looking absolutely perfect! A cold front will sweep through on Saturday night, taking the severe weather threat with it. Expect plenty of sunshine, lower humidity, and comfortable temperatures to enjoy the second half of the weekend. Time to break out the sunglasses and enjoy the great outdoors!
